Alexander Morris, 53, filed a lawsuit Monday against Ascension Macomb–Oakland Hospital in Warren, Michigan, alleging racial discrimination and other misconduct during an April 2023 visit for chest pain and breathing problems.

Hospital staff “wrongfully assumed he was mentally ill when he revealed his identity as a celebrity figure,” the lawsuit says.

The Four Tops started in the 1950s and had hits such as “I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)″ and “It’s The Same Old Song.” The group was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1990.

The lawsuit says a nurse finally believed Morris was in the Four Tops and the psychological exam was canceled.

The hospital offered a $25 gift card as an apology, but Morris refused to accept it, the lawsuit says.

“Alexander Morris, 53...The Four Tops started in the 1950s”

I’m guessing Mr. Morris wasn’t one of the original “Four Tops”.

But claim you’re a tranny, and psych evaluations are NOT allowed.

With the money from the settlement he should be able to burn a debt.

What can you get at a hospital for $25?

In 1968, the college I was attending hosted a Four Tops concert. The Tops were an hour and a half late, and quit during the intermission. There was a burning of Tops albums. I hid mine. I paid for them, and burning them did nothing to the Tops.

The Temptations often did not even show up for scheduled concerts.

Alexander “Lex” Morris takes over as new lead singer of The Four Tops

Amazing how many refuse to use that tool in front of them (took a whopping 20 seconds).

The hospital will probably settle, but if I was him, I’d refuse a settlement on the basis of their consequent insult.

“...hospital restrained him and ordered a psychological exam after refusing to believe that he was part of the Motown music group.”

But if he claimed to be a woman...

There is only one “original” member left and he’s a Muslim (Sri Lanka I think)

In the late 1960’s, after we got over Beatle mania, soul music was the thing here in southern Pennsylvania. The best way to clear a dance floor was to p!ay something by the Beatles, or any other English rock musicians.

These shrinks are the charlatans who the leftist want to give the power to to red flag people. It is a profession of grifters and frauds. They cure nothing and their “treatments” drive people crazy. Virtually all serial killers and mass shooters saw shrinks first, then went nuts.

“Alexander Morris, 53”

“The Four Tops started in the 1950s”

So he was in The Four Tops when he was 3?

That ain’t Levi Stubbs. That was their lead back in the day. I don’t know who this guy is.
